Awesome location downtown. Close to everything gaslamp... but w the downtown difficulties of finding parking (as to always be expected). The venue is well marked, well lit, and plenty of seating. There's a counter to order and easy to read menu. You get only a small peek into the kitchen .. but you can see the beloved adobada meat spit rotating from the front. We ordered a variety of tacos and mixture fries. Tacos are standard street tacos... adobada is the meat to get. It was fantastic, juicy, and extremely well flavored. ... read more

I took it to go and the Adobado got a lil messed up but was the best tasting of the two. The Asada was not bad but in comparison to other places nearby, it lacked luster (seasoning and smokiness).

1. The food was AMAZINGLY delicious! Never a hit or miss I love traveling to the OG spot in tj! 2. The environment, the ambiance of THIS taqueria was spectacular and the service was awesome the young lady in the front with purple hair had such an amazing attitude and was very welcoming I really enjoyed the fact that she broke down and explained in very nice detail what each item was in the menu highly recommended always !

Vampiro adobado was delicious - good spice level & I loved the melty cheese on the crispy corn tortilla tostada style. Smear of guac finished it nicely!

New Mexican taco gem alert! Opened a month ago with trendy vibes--staff sing while crafting fresh tacos (so fun & lively! ). Tried beef, pork, and beef tongue (the tongue was insanely tender--TOP PICK! ). Toppings are staff-served (no self-service ). Tacos lovers, add this to your must-visit list ASAP!

Def a good option for street tacos in DT. I mean sometimes you don't wanna wait in a crazy line for tacos el gordo and if that's the case this is second best taste wise. Please please please be warned they put beans in their tacos so if your like me and despise beans make sure you tell them to omit. Their adobada can't come close to their competition but their carne asada is def wayyyy better!

Only tried the Assad fries here, which were very solid. Fries were crispy, good amount of meat and overall good balance of ingredients!

the food was good and the service was quick and great. i would say that the food is a bit on the pricier side. the tacos are a lot different from the ones i've had before near my area in oc but i do like how they add guacamole on some dishes. it's wasn't crowded on a sunday night but it wasn't sparse either. id say it's a nice place to eat and people watch.

Finally had a chance to try Tacos El Franc. Everyday I'd pass by the line was HUGE. Until Saturday night it seemed reasonable. I ordered 1 taco de asada, 1 taco de al pastor, and 1 vampiro de asada. After about 10 minutes the order was ready. I asked for a side of the cebolla but that is sold separately. It's $4.65 before tax. The asada had an amazing taste to it. Apart from the smokey flavor it also had a nice seasoning to it. They also add beans onto them as well. Both the taco de asada and vampiro tasted hella good. The... read more
